About 18 Appleton Place
Stunning estate home tucked away on an exclusive cul-de-sac in sought-after Croasdaile Country Club. This all-brick residence offers a spacious and thoughtfully designed primarily one-level floor plan, blending timeless architecture with exceptional functionality. A grand tiled foyer opens to a front hallway lined with custom built-in bookshelves. Gleaming hardwood floors span the main living areas, complemented by elegant tile in the kitchen, baths, and sunroom. The family room impresses with soaring ceilings and a striking border of windows that flood the space with natural light. A wood-burning fireplace and additional built-ins create a warm, inviting atmosphere. Designed for entertaining, the generous dining room flows seamlessly into the expansive chef's kitchen. An oversized granite island provides abundant prep and gathering space, while a built-in Sub-Zero refrigerator integrates beautifully with custom cabinetry. A 6-burner gas range, stylish tile backsplash, and double sink complete this well-appointed culinary space. A tiled sunroom with walls of windows showcases sweeping views of the 15th fairway and fills the home with natural light. Just beyond, enjoy the ultimate outdoor living experience with a massive composite deck and patio — ideal for multiple seating areas and a custom outdoor kitchen. The private sleeping wing features a spacious owner's suite with large walk-in closets and a well-appointed bath, plus two additional bedrooms and a flexible fourth room perfect for a home office or study. A large laundry room with utility sink and abundant storage enhances everyday convenience. Upstairs, a massive bonus room with walk-in storage offers endless possibilities — game room, theater, or additional bedroom. An oversized two-car garage includes two walk-in storage rooms and a separate mechanical/utility room for even more storage. Located just minutes from Duke University and Downtown Durham, this exceptional property offers both privacy and convenience in one of the Triangle's most established golf course communities. A rare opportunity to own a true Carolina estate in a premier country club setting. Welcome Home.
